    Would someone be able to make a Kill Switch script that works with x3mrouting ?

    So the problem is that currently when the router reboots, or you stop the vpn client. Devices that are policy routed through the vpn using vpn director still retain internet access.

    Asus AX86S built-in VPN killswitch?

    Is there a built-in killswitch in the OpnVPN of Asus AX86S? Asking because I don't see any way I can activate it. So I was wondering if it might be built in or non existent? If so then is installing Merlin the only alternative?
